So many normal people being brave and then all these wealthy and powerful people being cowards. History will not be kind to the people like shari Redstone who enabled Trump.

Greg Abbott is a lackey of Donald Trump.

He’s going against exactly what he said he would do last year.

I will not back down.

Trump is now calling for the arrest of elected representatives checking his power.

What else is left on the path to full-blown authoritarianism?

This is wrong on every level. It’s a rigorous process that can take years. Just because a small number of rotten people faked being blind or paralyzed doesn’t mean the system should be gutted or over 9 million veterans getting benefits smeared. This is so dam irresponsible of WaPo.

Always bring it back to the Epstein Files.

Release the Epstein Files—seat Rep. Grijalda.

That's Trump's weakness and Achilles cankle.

He can't run or hobble away from it.

Republicans know it.

They know they radicalized their base for the past decade.

They know Trump is all up in those files.

MAGA lawmakers regularly share its content. Elon called it "one of the best accounts on X." It's run by a Macedonian who has never set foot in America — and who illegally donated to a U.S. congressional campaign.

Great stuff from @jsweetli.bsky.social:

Two influential MAGA social media accounts are run by Rumen Naumovski, a Macedonian who may have illegally donated to a U.S. election.

Dolly Parton has been a good person all her life. She does so many kind things for people. Compare that to someone like JK Rowling who wakes up every day and decides to be an absolute asshole.

One of these women has spent a lifetime selflessly funding a reading program widely available to any child who wants it, while the other one is an author of several books for children who did not do that.

The Labor Dept confirms that Americans don’t want & can’t do agricultural jobs, putting the lie to immigrants stealing jobs. AND a new bill seeks to REDUCE WAGES, which we all know are dismal & inhumane.

It’s the silence of the Republican House you need to hear. They aren’t doing anything. No oversight. No work. Trying to blame Democrats for their incompetence. We have voices. Use them peacefully and patriotically to protest your government. They want violence. Don’t give it to them.

Bank on this: Trump and his coterie of MAGA podcasters and bro-dudes will concoct an alternate Super Bowl halftime show featuring Lee Greenwood and other washed out never-have-beens, and its ratings will be so wildly embarrassing that Trump will declare all ratings “rigged and illegal.”
